Math Reflection
We used a program called Connected Math 2. There are different units in the book. There is also a Math Reflection after each one. The math program is very tough. There is also a getting ready problem before the section in the unit to talk about what they are doing in it to help you. It was also tough because sometimes the students don’t understand it so we have to do it with the class. There are also video tutors to help, that the teacher can show you or you can go at home and watch it to help you with your homework. We also have a vocabulary notebook that has all of the vocabulary in each book like Prime Time, Bits and Pieces 1, Bits and Pieces 2, Shapes and Designs and Covering and Surrounding and also How Likely Is It.

There are also math goals about what you are going to learn. They tell you about what you are going to learn in the book or your goals.
After you do an lesson you will do ACE (Application Connection Extension). The ACE is gets harder as you go along in the book.

You will have background knowledge when you start the new lesson or you may not. Your background knowledge gets greater as you get older and older. In the connected math book your background knowledge gets greater as you go along in the book.
In the book How Likely Is It they talked about probability, also in the book Prime Time they talked about multiples and factors, in the book Shapes and designs they talked about Two Dimensional Shapes. Also in the book Bits and Pieces 1 they talked about understanding fractions, decimals and percents, in the book Bits and Pieces 2 using fraction operations.
In conclusion we learned in all of the books new things and harder things.
